3 Claims.

This invention relates to a burner construction,

the general'object oi the invention being to provide means for supporting a radiaht on a burner head in such a manner that 5 of the radiant falling from or being there is no danger knocked and arrangement of the hereinafter fully described, companying drawings and out in the appended several parts, to be illustrated in the acspecifically pointed claims.

In describing the invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawings wherein like characters denote like 01' corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which:

the radiant supported from the burner head in accordance with this invention.

Fig. 2 is a fragmentary vertical sectional view taken longitudinally of the device.

Fig. 3 is a vertical transverse sectional view through the supporting member, ing taken substantially on the line the section be- 3-3 of Fig. 1.

Fig. 4 is a horizontal sectional view through one end oi the radiant; the section being taken on the line 4-4 of Fig. 1.

Fig. 5 is a top plan view of one of the burner nozzles.

Fig. 6 is a section on line 6-6 of Fig. 5.

In these drawings, l9 and it is provided passages 2|, flaring outwardly, as

the burner head is shown at with the vertically arranged the upper portions oi said passages shown in Fig. 2 for the recross section and has a cap 23 fitting thereon, the

cap being provided with longitudinally extending slots 23. Gas passages 2| this mixture slots 23' in the cap A radiant support in any suitable manner.

is ignited as it escapes through the 23 oi the nozzles 22.

and. air are supplied to the of course,

26 is mounted on the burner head and said support is composed of side and end members, each of substantially angle-shape in cross section with one limb extending upwardly and the other inwardly, the inwardly extending part inwardly extending forming a horizontal shoulder 26' and. the

parts oi the end members each having an opening 28 therein, as shown in Fig. 2. The support 26 is also iormed with the legs 21 which slope downwardly and outwardly, as shown more particularly in Fig. 3 and the lower ends of these legs are notched as shown at 21' to receive portions of the upper edge of the head. A radiant shown generally at 29 has its lower end 5 fitting in the support 26 and resting on the shoulder 26'. This radiant is of any suitable construction though its vertical end members 30 are formed with the exterior channels 31 which are located in vertical alinement with the open- 10 lugs 28 oi the support. Loop-shaped members 24 are formed at the ends of theburner head and located beneath said members 2'4 are the socketed members 25 also formed on the ends oi the burner head. 15 Retaining bars 38, bent as shown in Fig. 2, pass through the openings 28 in the support 26 and V have their inwardly ofiset lower portions engaged in the loops 24 and the lower ends in the sockets 25 while their upper ends are located in the chan- 20 nels 31 so that these bars firmly hold the support 26 on the burner head and. the radiant on the support. The radiant is provided with a head 35 having passages 36 therein which communicate with the spaces in the radiant. 25

Thus it will be seen that the support holds the radiant in spaced relation to the burner head and the parts are firmly held together by the notched legs 21 and the bars 38, it of course being understood that the radiant is heated by the g0 flame of the burner head.

What is claimed is 1. In a burner, a burner head having a flat top and vertically arranged sides and ends, a radiant extending over the entire length and width of the 5 head, a supporting member on which the radiant is seated and legs depending from the supporting member and having notches in the inner iaces of their lower ends, the walls 01 which engage portions of the upper face and side and end walls 4.0 of the burner head.

2. In a burner, a burner head, a radiant, a supporting member on which the radiant is mounted and legs depending from the supporting member and having notches in the inner faces 4.5 of their lower ends, the walls of which engage portions oi the upper face and side walls oi the burner head, the ends of the supporting member having openings therein and the ends of the radiant having vertical grooves therein, loop- 50 forming members extending from the ends of the burner head and socket-forming members extending from the ends 01 said burner head and rodspassing through the openings in the ends oi the supporting member and through the loop 55 members with their lower ends resting in the ingmembers extending from the ends of the sockets of the socket members and their upper burner head, the end members of the radiant hav-,
